Konklave
Ein grünes Treffen. Kein Rauch. Nur Licht.
Ein Schwur aus Chlorophyll.

Conclave
A green assembly. No smoke. Only light.
A vow written in chlorophyll.

Frisch entfaltende Farnwedel im Gegenlicht, teilweise noch eingerollt, mit leuchtend grüner Struktur. Die Szene wirkt geheimnisvoll und lebendig, wie ein geheimes Treffen im Schatten der Natur. /
Freshly unfurling fern fronds backlit by sunlight, some still coiled, glowing in vivid green. The scene feels mysterious and alive, like a secret gathering in the shadow of nature.

A flash of feathers in the morning mist. This sparrow’s whisper reminds us: even the smallest voices matter in the grand chorus of life.

Die Eschen springen auf
und fragen nach dem Licht der neuen Zeit
Wie schwarze Augen, die den Himmel prüfen,
reißen sie auf, wo der Winter noch schweigt.

Ein Flüstern liegt in den Zweigen,
von dem, was keimt,
trotz allem

Suspendues entre le givre et lumière, ces toiles d’araignées se parent d’éclats cristallins, comme des constellations figées dans le froid.

Photo argentique au format 1:1 capturant des toiles d’araignées gelées. Les fils délicats, recouverts de givre, scintillent sous la lumière froide du matin, dessinant un réseau complexe et fragile. Chaque goutte de glace suspendue aux entrelacs semble figer le temps, transformant ces structures naturelles en dentelles cristallisées. L’arrière-plan flou renforce l’aspect onirique et éthéré de la scène.

Und horcht des Schilfes Schlummerliede;
Ein lindes Säuseln kommt und geht,
Als flüstr' es:
Friede! Friede! Friede!

“MacBeth out-Hughes’ Hughes here. A masterpiece of control, ‘Owl’ is stitched with the kinds of metaphor that capture the brutality of evolutionary purpose in simple, uncompromising phrases”

—Steve Whitaker on George MacBeth’s poem “Owl”

Owl
by George MacBeth

Is my favourite. Who flies
like a nothing through the night,
who-whoing. Is a feather
duster in leafy corners ring-a-rosy-ing
boles of mice. Twice

you hear him call. Who
is he looking for? You hear
him hoovering over the floor
of the wood. O would you be gold
rings in the driving skull

if you could? Hooded and
vulnerable by the winter suns
owl looks. Is the grain of bark
in the dark. Round beaks are at
work in the pellety nest,

resting. Owl is an eye
in the barn. For a hole
in the trunk owl’s blood
is to blame. Black talons in the
petrified fur! Cold walnut hands

on the case of the brain! In the reign
of the chicken owl comes like
a god. Is a goad in
the rain to the pink eyes,
dripping. For a meal in the day

flew, killed, on the moor. Six
mouths are the seed of his
arc in the season. Torn meat
from the sky. Owl lives
by the claws of his brain. On the branch

in the sever of the hand’s
twigs owl is a backward look.
Flown wind in the skin. Fine
Rain in the bones. Owl breaks
like the day. Am an owl, am an owl.

George MacBeth (1932–1992) was born #OTD, 19 Jan

“MacBeth’s language is beautifully melodic: the stanzas unfold like operatic arias, becoming more florid and complex in thought as the poem develops…”

The land we inhabit opens to reveal
the stain of ancient settlements,
plague pits where we’d lay
our fibre-optic cables;

but witness these brittle August
bluebells casting seed,
like tiny hearts in caskets
tossed onto a battle ground.

In the heart of the garden, a rose blooms in soft pink and white, its petals like whispered secrets unfolding in the morning light. It stands in regal splendor, each streak of color a brushstroke of nature’s tender artistry, surrounded by the promise of new buds waiting to tell their own stories. Nearby, upon a weathered wooden surface, nature’s touch is evident in the delicate, golden lichen that clings to the grain. It whispers of time’s passage and the quiet resilience of life, transforming the ordinary into a canvas of earthy hues and silent strength. Emerging from a sea of green, the fresh shoots of a shrub reach upwards, heralding the promise of new beginnings. Each sprout, a symbol of growth and renewal, is bathed in the soft light, creating a harmonious symphony of nature’s endless cycle.
